A long-duration nor'easter is forecast to bring coastal gusts of 70–95 km/h and heavy rain to southern New England through the weekend starting September 25, 2026. High Wind Warnings are in effect for coastal and southeastern Massachusetts and most of Rhode Island. Coastal Flood Warnings remain for southeastern Virginia, where inundation of 0.6–0.9 m is forecast.

Context

The prolonged winds and heavy rain could raise risks of downed trees and power outages, affecting households and businesses. Coastal flooding may close roads and disrupt transport, waste collection, and parking in places like Norfolk, while high surf and marine warnings could keep vessels in port. People in warning areas may need to adjust travel and protect property.
